CillDaraMan: Corn Marigold
Corn Marigold
There's probably some irony in the fact that I'm growing this plant in a wildflower patch in my garden, when my profession (tillage farmer) have almost wiped it out in its natural habitat, our crop fields.

A quick shot from the photo walk I organised yesterday
Lots more photos on the way in the next few weeks, including great shots from all the photo lovers out on the first photo walk!!!
inphotos.org: Gardner House
As I mentioned already in my Polish Coal post, my dad worked in Suttons Coals for years. Gardner House on the South Mall in Cork used to be called Suttons House but then coal’s fortunes changed.
Oil and gas became more popular. Legislation banned any coal other than smokeless coal from urban areas and the coal industry in Ireland went into decline.
Anyway, South Mall is the “financial district” in Cork City. There are some beautiful buildings but also some damn ugly ones like Gardner House and the white building across from it.
The photowalk on Saturday is almost full! Will is going to be there too and has blogged all the photowalks countrywide. It’s going to be busy!
On the off chance it’s going to rain make sure to bring an umbrella, or at least a rain coat and if you can, a plastic bag to cover your camera. We can head into the English Market of course but there will be wanderings around the city too!
I must ring the Old Oak tomorrow and ask if they’re serving food around 4pm, failing that perhaps a restaurant. Any other suggestions?

I took this during a small photowalk I attended a week or two ago. I did quite a bit of processing on this to bring out the textures in b&w.
